| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Force pair | A force pair is the forces two objects apply to each other |
| Normal force | the normal force is the force that pushes perpendicular to the objects surface |
| elastic collision | when colliding objects bounce off each other, is an elastic collision. |
| Non contact force | A force that one object can apply to another object without touching it. |
| Gravity | Is an attractive force that exists between all objects that have mass |
| Field | Is a region of space that has a physical quantity (such as a force) at every point |
| weight | is the gravitational force exerted on an object |
| Acceleration | is a measure of the change in the in the velocity during a period of time |
| force | is a push and pull and pull object |
| contact | is a push or pull on one thing |
| Newtons 2nd law | that the acceleration of an object equals the net force on the objects Divided by the objects mass |
| interia | to resiany change in motion |
| Contact force | is a push or pull on one object |
| Friction | is a force that resist the sliding motion of two surfaces that are touching |
| Free-Body Diagram | is a simply model to understand systems of objects with any amount of applied force |
| Net force | is the sum of all the force acting on an object |
| Newtons 1st law | states that an object in motion will stay in motion |
| Motion | the posses of changing motion |
| Displacement | is the difference between the initial, or starting, position and the final position |
| speed | is a measure of the distance an object travels |
| velocity | is the speed and friction of a moving object |
| vector | is a quantity that has both magnitude and direction |
| reference point | is a starting point you choose to describe the location |
| position | An objects distance and direction from a reference point |
| Newtons 3rd law | of motion states that when an object applies a force on a other object |
| inelastic collision | if objects collide and stick together |
